Jason Hylton-Foster:
A POEM BY JASON
THE THINGS I HAVE SEEN TEAR ME UP INSIDE
I WISH THAT I COULD RUN AND HIDE
TO GOD I ASK WHY THAT MY FRIEND HAD TO DIE
THE ANSWER I WILL NEVER KNOW
AND WHEN IT IS MY TIME TO GO
THE ANSWERS TO MY QUESTIONS I WILL KNOW
AND WE WILL BE TOGETHER AGAIN
ME AND HIM FOREVER FRIENDS.
R.I.P. PAUL I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN ONE DAY.....
************************************
Bryan Burns: Paul joked that when he eventually left his part time job, he wanted his work shoes bronzed and hung on the wall - well, they'll be there, friend...
************************************
Jason H.F. .: Paul liked to challenge his friends to give him their best shot to his shoulder, few would ever take up the challenge 'cuz the payment back would be the same from Paul, ...He would send you flying... I'll miss his smiley grin...
************************************
Grant Gamble: Paul was everything to me - my best friend, I loved him like a son. I remember when he had troubles, I would spend hours trying to help him work them out, until he eventually felt better. I wish so bad that this is one I could help with...
It's going to be hard not to expect his voice on the other end of the phone when I get a call... Paul loved the people that loved him. He always had a smile waiting for anyone who wanted one. Paul was maturing into a young man who knew where he was going,... he had plans and aspirations, he wanted to go into the medical profession. Paul knew he could do so much more,...
I knew too Paul.
Paulster, I am missing you terribly, buddy. There will be a huge hole in my heart forever.
Until we're together again, sleep tight and Rest in Peace.
*********************************
Chris Emmett: Paul you was a great guy we will never forget him, You are in a better
place rest in peace.
************************************
Kristen.P: Paul was one of my fellow employees but more importantly he
was a great friend. We may have had hard times but all the memories
are of the good times we shared. Paul was a great person and I will miss
him greatly.
**************************************
Matthew Pope: I met Paul back in Grade 8, and from then on, he was one of my closest
friends. Always there to listen, to offer advice, crack a joke,
whatever it was, he had always made me laugh. Though he may not be with
us in person, he lives on in our hearts......I'll miss you Paul.
*******************************************
From the Hylton-Foster Family: Paul, We never got to know you as well as we would have liked to but we
miss your happy face around the house already. You and Jason were good
friends and we are glad that you had the chance to spend your last day
on this earth together. You will be forever in the thoughts of the
Hylton-Foster family. Rest in peace Paul.
*******************************************
Don Miller: I just met Paul last year and I am very glad that I did. He was truely
a good friend and I could see him going places in life. I just found
out from my mom that when I was very young Paul used to be my neighbor
so that just brought him a little closer to me and my family. We'll
miss you Paul.
*******************************************
Grant Stewart: Paul was not only a Great Guy but he had alot of stuff going for
him...Good grades, focus, and a great smile always showed the best of
Paul...Most of his pride and joy was in his **Green Ford Ranger** and
his **250 yz yamaha Dirt Bike**....You were a Great Guy and we love and
miss u... but eventually we will m? ?in..until then...... R.I.P.....

For a short time an angel came into our lives. He touched our hearts and
souls. Then he was suddenly taken away. Now he shall forever be looking
over us. Thinking of the times that he was once with us. As for us we
should only hope that one day we will all be together again. Paul's
warmth and love will create a path that one day we will all meet again.
Sadly, Paul was the one who had to have the strength, love and knowledge
to build the path. Paul, one day we shall meet again, 'till then you
will forever be in our hearts. You will always be loved and remembered.
Missing you,
E
and

To whom it may concern:
Well, first off, I'd like to compliment you on your page. It was quite
lovely, though it was an awful excuse to post one. I was given the
address and asked to check it out by Matt. So, I did. If it's any
consulation to any of you, I understand fully what you are going
through, have been through, and will go through. I lost my best friend
when I was in grade 4, my "baby" just this past June. He wasn't even two
years old. He was killed by a drunk driver. Anyhow, I read a poem once,
and it reminded me of what has happened with Paul. I didn't know him
personally, but from what I heard from Matt, he was a fabulous person.
Well, here it is:
The Tiny "Rosebud" God Picked to Bloom in Heaven
The Master Gardner
From Heaven above
Planted a seed
In the garden of love
And from there it grew
A rosebud small
That never had time
To open at all,
For God in His perfect
And all-wise way
Chose this rose
For His heavenly bouquet
And great was the joy
Of this tiny rose
To be the one our Father chose
To leave earth's garden
For One on high
Where roses bloom always
And never die...
So, while you can't see
Your precious rose bloom
You know the Great Gardner
From the "Upper Room"
Is watching and tending
This wee rose with care,
Tenderly touching
Each petal so fair...
So, think of your darling
With angels above
Secure and contented
And surrounded by love,
And remember God blessed
And enriched your lives, too,
For in dying your darling
Brought Heaven closer to you!
That was a poem that was read at Joshua's funeral in June. Well, thanks
for allowing me to express my feelings. You're all in my prayers.Love,Jennifer
